When women are about to go through the physiological period, the level of estrogen in the body will increase significantly. At this time, the breast will proliferate and the tissue will also produce edema, so women will feel chest pain and the chest seems to be getting bigger. This situation is actually normal, almost all women will have chest discomfort before menstruation. This feeling can be improved by some self-adjustment. However, if the situation is serious, it is necessary to consider doing an examination, because it may be a sign of some breast diseases and other diseases. Severe pain is probably caused by severe endocrine disorders. The imbalance of hormone levels means that hormones other than estrogen may not be active in the normal working range, which has caused some hidden dangers.

Methods to relieve premenstrual chest distress;

1, hot compress

Hot compress is a direct and effective relief method. When you feel breast pain, you can wrap a hot water bottle with a towel and apply it to your chest. If the effect is not ideal, you can also prepare a basin of cold water, soak the towel and apply it alternately.

Step 2: corset

Too small a bra will press the breast, causing poor blood circulation and swelling pain, while too large a bra will cause the chest to be unable to be fixed and will be injured during exercise. A fitted bra can prevent the breasts from sagging due to swelling, effectively protect the breasts and prevent the nerves that have been compressed from being severely compressed.

3. Reduce the "salt" movement

7 to 10 days before menstruation, you should eat less high-salt food. Excessive salt will also aggravate edema and make breasts swell. Eat a light diet after ovulation and avoid high salt. If you eat salty stew or snacks, don't drink a lot of water immediately, because this will not only neutralize the salt, but also let the salt penetrate into the blood through the liquid and oppress the blood vessels.

4, vitamins, reduce prolactin

Prolactin can cause breast swelling. You can eat more foods rich in vitamin C and vitamin B, regulate the production of L- adenosine E, and help to inhibit the production of prolactin.

Step 5 separate caffeine

Medical experiments have proved that quitting the habit of drinking coffee every day will obviously improve breast pain. Of course, not only coffee, but also chocolate, cola, tea and even painkillers containing caffeine should be kept away, so as to relieve the pain.

6. Eat low-fat and high-fiber foods.

In the week before menstruation, eating low-fat and high-fiber foods such as coarse grains and whole grains as much as possible can also improve the nutritional balance of the body and relieve pain.
